On Friday, Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) promoted and quoted a video calling for the government to use eminent domain to seize plants closed by companies like General Motors (GM) – and use those plants to create Tlaib’s "Green New Deal."

Tlaib tweeted a new video created by Greater Detroit Democratic Socialists of America, "Make the Green New Deal a Reality," quoting its last line advocating using government to "take control" of corporate production capacity:
"Either we can continue to let corporations, who treat our communities and workers like disposable resources, dictate our fate, or we can take control of our situation, and use our productive capacity to address our common crisis.#GreenNewDeal"
